The longest doubles match
A new record was set for the longest Handicap Doubles match played during any Northern Week lasting 8½ hours elapsed time.  It eventually finished with John Haslam, partnered by John Wilkinson, with only a rover peel to do when he failed to make the hoop with his own ball leaving opponents Phil Eardley & Sylvia Steer to peg out with a simple rush.
